when two bicurious men are sexually and/or romantically attracted to each other but, since they're living in a biphobic society where experimenting is frowned at, they insist that what they're feeling is just brotherly love to avoid being labeled "gay". Instead, they're automatically labeled "straight" because touching and kissing other men makes them seem soooo "secure in their own sexuality".

"Some guy: Adam's my best friend, I just wanna touch him and kiss him and be near him all the time. I suppose we've got a bit of a bromance going on."

-verb -mans-ing
1. The act of wooing a fellow male friend for the purpose of becoming closer.
2. Going to unusual lengths in an attempt to become closer with another male friend.

also: "Bromancing the Stone"
1. The act of truly and thoroughly enjoying the process of getting and/or being high/stoned.

Provenance/Origin: "Bromance" is a portmanteau of the two words "brother" and "romance". Originally coined by author/editor Dave Carnie in "Big Brother Magazine." Big Brother was a sort of R rated skateboarding/skate culture magazine that was eventually purchased by Larry Flynt's Hustlerconglomerate and consequently taken out of circulation due to unsatisfactory sales performance. Carnie used the word on several occasions to describe relationships between skate-buddies who spent a lot of time together and/or shared hotel rooms on every tour/skate road trip.

-As a noun: "Dude, those two guys spend so much time together. They are having quite the bromance."

-As a verb: "Andy has been treating Victor to every meal and covercharge for a month now. It's obvious that he is trying to bromance him."

(N) The intense complicated love shared between two heterosexual males that consists of but not limited to wrestling, numerous man-dates, and tons of other stories that will only remain between the two.

Also a form of male bonding to such a point where they start to seem like a couple.

This bond is normally only shared between two males that have a deeper understanding of each other, in a way no woman could ever realize.
